I don't know if you can do it
I don't know if you will last
I don't know quite how you feel
And I'm too afraid to ask

You can't see what I see                      
You can't tell these lies                        
You can't just ignore me                    
And then say your goodbye              

      I still hear your heartbeat                                    
         And I still feel your touch                                    
          I can still remember you                                      
    Sometimes it's just too much                              

                   I wonder what you're thinking
         I wonder how you know
                        And wonder when you look away
      How long until you go?

I don't think that I can keep you                           
I don't think you want to stay                          
I don't think we quite understand                       
But we can't go our separate ways                        

       Something always brings us back
Something keeps us here        
    Something which we hide inside
Gets rid of all the fear              

I don't know if I can trust you                      
But I know I want to try                              
I don't love you like I used to                      
It's so different this time                                

I don't know if we can do it
I don't know if this can last
All I know is how I feel
And it's nothing like the past
